The Iowa border counties in Northern Missouri are well known for some of the finest whitetail & turkey hunting in the state. Mercer County, Missouri lives up to this reputation, year in and year out. To dive further, this 140 acres lies 5 miles south of the Iowa line, in one of the most highly managed, highly sought after neighborhoods in the state. The quality and shear quantity of deer in this area is simply outstanding.
This farm has a nice mix of cover, open areas, and water. Prior to 2014, much of the open ground was in row crop with productive Class III Loam soils. It was subsequently seeded down to grass to graze cattle. The grass on this farm is the best I’ve seen anywhere in the county.

This farm has a nice mix of cover, open areas, and water. Prior to 2014, much of the open ground was in row crop with productive Class III Loam soils. It was subsequently seeded down to grass to graze cattle. The grass on this farm is the best I’ve seen anywhere in the county. With good fencing, cross fencing, and plentiful water sources, this farm would be turn-key for anyone wanting to continue the ranching operation. The seller would also consider renting back the grazing rights for $10,000 per year if desired.
For the buyer looking for a great combination farm with hunting and income, there are roughly 50 acres that could be put back into crop production. Cash rental rates in the area run $120 - $150 per acre. By establishing food sources and enhancing the existing cover through native warm season grass plantings, this farm will offer incredible hunting opportunities. I have seen large flocks of turkeys here every time I’ve been on the ground. The diversity of rolling terrain naturally funnels deer activity through this farm, connecting larger blocks of neighboring timber. There is a well maintained equipment shed on the property that has electricity and rural water ran to it. Remote locations with utilities already on site are hard to come by, and one huge expense you do not have to incur. When you have like-minded neighbors managing their farms for age structure under QDM principles, you have the making of something special in the hunting community.
